With KINGS POINT, director Sari Gilman tells the stories of five seniors living in a typical American retirement resort - men and women who came to Florida decades ago with their spouses and their health intact, who now find themselves grappling with love, loss, and the prospect of dying alone, far from family and life- long friends. A bittersweet look at our national obsession with self-reliance, Kings Point explores the dynamic tension between living and aging - between our desire for independence and our need for community - and underscores our powerful ambivalence toward growing old.

"[The filmmaker] intends Kings Point... to prompt discussions about people’s futures as they age. That’s a tough thing to get Americans to do, but watching Kings Point shows why it matters." ~ The New York Times
